Evidently not, as there are groups that play in this style.
It is the players who choose these relationships, not the Narrator. Therefore the number of people contributing effort to the process increases as amount of effort required increases, so the load on the Narrator does not increase so rapidly.

If the player characters in an existing campaign have a large network of relationships with NPCs, it is likely that at least some of the NPCs are lacking in detail, so those NPCs can be suitably fleshed out to provide connections to a scenario.
